30 Day OTP Challenge

Part 2 of Day 29

It's been a while. Sorry.

Phil took Dan off of the stage, holding his waist incase he fainted.

"Phil?" Dan started.

"Yeah?" Phil replied quietly.

"I'm sorry."

"For what?"

"I basically just outed us without asking you. I didn't realise I was talking aloud."

"It's okay, I know it was an accident." The two were now standing in a corridor on their own.

"Are you mad?"

"Yeah, of course I am; I wanted to do this properly," Phil sighed. "Do you want to make a video about it?"

Dan nodded slowly.

"Can you clap?" Phil asked, the camera finally set up and focused.

Dan clapped as loudly as he could, making Phil flinch slightly.

"I said clap, not deafen me, you idiot." He laughed. "Anyway, let's start this. Go sit on the ground out of shot."

Dan did as he was told and sat just behind the tripod.

"Hey guys, I'm in America right now, but this isn't gonna be a travel vlog, it's a more serious video than usual. I've got..." Phil could feel his hand shaking against his leg.

"It's okay, Phil, calm down." Dan said quietly, holding Phil's hand in his own.

Phil took a deep breath. "I've got my boyfriend with me. You probably know him; his name is Dan Howell, AKA danisnotonfire."

Dan sat back up on the bed and waved at the camera. "Hi."

"I'm sure most of you have already heard about what happened on stage today, but we thought we should probably clear things up a bit."

"Before we say anything else, I'm just gonna go ahead and say that I- well, we're bisexual, not just gay."

"We'll make a proper video about this later, but basically, we started dating on the 19th of October 2009, the Valentine's Day video was real, but we'd still prefer it to be private, and no, we're not married. I think that's about it." Phil looked towards his boyfriend for confirmation.

Dan nodded."Yeah, and you can leave your questions in the comments section, but please, be nice; any hate will be removed."

"Bye guys!"

"Catch you next time!"

"Why did you say that?" Phil laughed.

"Shut up, I don't know." Dan said, burying his hands in his face in embarrassment.
